| Official recap Could the Cornhuskers bounce back after the title-bearing defeat by Missouri? The question was answered in amazing fashion as Nebraska completely demoralized a fine Kansas team, exploded for a 40-0 lead in the third quarter and coasted to a 40-16 victory. It was Willie Ross leading the attack — scoring three TDs and, with 110 yards rushing, almost equaling KU’s total ground production — with massive support from the Scarlet line. An interesting sidelight to an unexpected lopsided contest: All seven TDs were followed by two-point conversions. (The season's success rate for major schools was .450.) H'PEDIA NOTES: John Faiman, the Huskers' PAT kicker, broke a leg in practice earlier in the week. … On the KU sideline was assistant coach Bill Jennings, the former Nebraska head coach. … The Jayhawks never advanced beyond their own 45 yard line in the first half.
